And if that little poll doesn’t work for you, here’s something about poetry and money. Both of these nouns (though I wish money was more of an active verb) have been smashing against the grey, somewhat inactive brain matter the past few days as I contemplate life in the future, or mostly the fact that, in the next six months or so, my scholarship will run out, the thesis will hopefully be done, and in the spirit of the economy, or the fact that I like to spend money, I may have to understand, or at least consider, that I may very well have to get a real job. Hello? Are you still there?

What I'm Reading Now

“Take warning from all those times when on meeting again, we feel ashamed because we realize we had accepted the false simplification which absence permits, its obliteration of all those characteristics which, when we meet face to face, force themselves upon even the blindest. Where human beings are concerned, the statement ‘nothing is true’ is true—at a distance—and the converse is also true—at the moment of confrontation” --Dag Hammarskjold.
